Abstract:
To effectively check a plurality of unit circuits, each including an electro-optical element and a control circuit. Each unit circuit U includes an OLED element and a control circuit for controlling operation of the OLED element. A check signal for tentatively driving the OLED element is input to a check terminal TPa1. A switching element is connected to a check unit circuit Ut, located at a corner of an effective region A, of the plurality of unit circuits U. The switching element is changed from an on state where the OLED element in the check unit circuit Ut is electrically isolated from the check terminal TPa1 to an off state where the OLED element in the check unit circuit Ut is electrically connected to the check terminal TPa1.

Abstract:
A stainless steel pipe of the bright annealing finish type, having a highly-soothed inner surface according to the present invention is characterized in that the inner surface roughness of the pipe, expressed in Rmax is 1.0 micrometer or less, and suitable as a clean pipe for use in an apparatus for the production of semiconductors. According to the method of production of the present invention, a stainless steel pipe having a highly-smoothed inner surface can be obtained by cold drawing and bright annealing treatment only. By this method, such a treatment that has been considered to be essential, for example, electrochemical polishing can be omitted, so that the production cost can be greatly reduced. The stainless steel pipe of the invention can thus be widely utilized in the fields of the production of semiconductors and the like.

Abstract:
Generally speaking, in accordance with the invention, a semiconductor memory device comprises a static RAM cell having a serial-parallel data conversion function, formed of seven transistors. The RAM can read/write and includes bit lines exclusively for reading and bit lines which are exclusively for writing the data. Data is read through the bit lines for exclusive reading by means of a single gate transistor. The semiconductor memory device provides a memory whose area is small in spite of including therein a serial-parallel conversion function. Further, access to the memory cell is freely available from the system side.
